A Place to Grow Happiness...

that is what these glass houses are about whether they are artist studios, green houses or even a Pilates studio what matters is that you use them to do something that makes you happy! I just took these pictures of the Artist Studio as it is getting finished out. They have hung the chandelier, put in wood flooring that was left over from their home and finished out the interior walls with pine siding. After checking out the swap meet and several antique stores they found a work bench, cabinet and cool door knocker which they installed above the door! The back wall is prepped for the tile mosaic which is soon to come. I saw the picture of the mosaic and it is a picture of Yosemite featuring  El Capitan, the river and a beautiful meadow, talk about a place that will inspire happiness!

What makes me happy is that Lori and Jeff are happy with their Place to Grow!!

This article I just read got me to thinking...

about places to grow. The article is about planning a beautiful vegetable garden and talks about designing your vegetable garden to be "as beautiful to look at as it is productive." This reminded me of our greenhouses and how they too are beautiful to look at and yet functional as well, I consider them to be  "functional art". In fact wouldn't a glass greenhouse round out any garden? Check out the article, they have some pretty good ideas on planning your vegetable garden!

Creating places to grow.......

give me such fulfillment! These glass houses are what I consider to be "functional art". We have just completed our first artist studio! This is a 6'x8' glass house that will be used by a friend of mine to carve wood. My friend intends to mosaic the back wall of the studio with a mountain scene to complement the location of it in their backyard nestled between a pine tree and a manzanita bush! Their three waterfall pond provides the perfect background music for this creative space.

As I have mentioned in earlier blogs, A Place to Grow doesn't mean just a place to grow plants, it can mean a place to grow creatively such as this artist studio. I am so happy to be able to create this place of beauty so that my friend can carve her things of beauty and so the cycle goes.

In what way do you want to grow....

Here's to "growing"!!
